SD-WAN
Get a smarter network that can tailor traffic management to each app and combine connections to boost uptime.
Smarter connectivity to scale and optimise your business operations.
From optimising network performance to minimising disruptions, our SD-WAN solutions enhance communication and boost operational efficiency, helping you drive growth and reliability across your organization.
Smarter Connectivity to Power Your Workflows and Communication
Your wide area network (WAN) is the backbone of your operations—connecting your teams, handling calls, and managing access to vital data. But traditional WANs are outdated. Modern software-defined WANs are faster, smarter, and more efficient, with intelligent routing that seamlessly connects all your sites and resources.
Enhanced Network Performance
SD-WAN technology intelligently prioritises and reroutes important traffic, ensuring your critical applications run smoothly. It can also deprioritise, limit or block non-essential traffic, keeping your bandwidth focused on what matters most.
Minimised Network Disruptions
By seamlessly integrating multiple connections, SD-WAN reduces downtime and boosts connection speeds, ensuring your business stays online and productive, even during outages or disruptions.

Benefits
Real-world business benefits and customer support
Optimise WAN performance
Prioritise network traffic so phone calls are glitch free and hosted applications respond speedily. Ban or throttle unwanted network traffic. Make the most of your available bandwidth, putting off expensive upgrades until they’re needed.
Enhance Network Reliability
Minimise downtime and optimise performance by blending leased lines, fibre broadband, and mobile broadband. Connect sites faster and minimise network expenses.
Take control of your network
Our online control panel lets you instantly adjust traffic policies for specific sites, groups, or your entire network. Tailor policies for traffic from different apps and classes of app, configure your network, the way you want.
Gain visibility over WAN usage
See how your wide area network’s bandwidth is really being used. Perfect for spotting unexpected problems, cracking down on misuse, troubleshooting, and planning just-in-time capacity upgrades.
Improve Network Security
Optionally, you can enable extensive integrated security features, including web filtering, intrusion prevention measures, threat intelligence and traditional firewall and VPN functions.
FAQs
How is an SD-WAN different to a traditional WAN?
It’s more granular, able to apply different settings to traffic generated by different applications and sites. It can combine multiple connections while hiding that complexity from end-users. It puts you in control via an online control panel. You can create politicies that optimise network use and security, then apply those policies across one or more sites
How do SD-WANs boost WAN uptime and bandwidth?
They can route traffic across multiple connections, aggregating bandwidth and re-routing traffic to reduce the impact of connection faults. This happens automatically, based on policies you or your ISP sets.
Could an SD-WAN save my organisation money?
Possibly, though not always. It lets you seamlessly combine leased lines with cheaper full-fibre broadband, possibly reducing upgrades and allowing some substitutions. It allows you to sweat your network by banning/throttling less desirable traffic and prioritising important traffic.
Any other benefits?
Network usage stats help you investigate network issues and arrange just-in-time connectivity upgrades. Centralised control helps if you have a small central IT team and sites without full-time IT staff.
